Orange to have iPhone in store on 10 November

Orange could be stocking the iPhone across its retail stores and online from as soon as 10 November in time for the Christmas season.

Orange VP of sales and loyalty, Guillame van Gaver recently told Mobile, the device will be sold in Phones 4u, Carphone Warehouse and its HMV concessions.

The date is thought to be the day after O2 and Apple’s contract ends.

An Orange spokesperson said: ‘While we haven't yet announced a launch date, we have announced that iPhone will be available from Orange before Christmas. We look forward to announcing a launch date and pricing plans in the coming weeks.’

Vodafone is also yet to announce an official date for when the sought after device will be available on its network.
